Instructor: Winston Liu

Class Type: Take Notes! | These are our classic "lecture-styled" classes, where you're given lots of in-depth information by a knowledgeable instructor. Anyone is welcome to attend, but these classes are geared toward folks with more than a passing interest in the subject.

WHAT YOU'LL GET IN THIS CLASS:

  • A deep-dive, instructor-led tasting.
  • 7 wines from across the Alps.
  • An individual cheese plate.
  • Special pricing on all featured wines.
  • Some lasting memories!

The Alps have long inspired awe, but they've also inspired some truly exceptional wines. They touch in part many of Europe's finest wine producing regions, from Bugey and Savoie in France, Trentino-Alto Adige and Valle d'Aosta in Italy, Valais in Switzerland, Kärnten in Austria, Baden in Germany, and beyond. In the deep seclusion of alpine valleys, ancient traditions and indigenous grapes have been protected and preserved on steep vineyards to produce a remarkable variety of wines from stony, salty whites, to delicate, fully ripe reds and rosés. These high-altitude wines from cool climates are among some of our favorite wines, and it's easy to see why once you've tasted them. Join Winston for an entertaining evening of viticultural mountaineering as we sip our way through wines that are as breath-taking as the vineyards that they come from.
